my law. George T. Curtis, the resident attor-
ney OF the Mormons, expresses these opip.
ions:
The Mormons, acting under the
law, will be able to control all the
town elections. The Mormons have
discovered that they can conscien-
tiously prescribe to the oath required, and
that being the case, il they are permitted
to vote, it will not be possible to prevent
the ~polygamists from being everywhere
triumphant at the polls. The officers who
administered the oath were at first dispos-
I'd to ask questions which the Utah com
missioners declared to be improper and
the asking OF which was subsequently for
hidden. Since hat time the oaths have
been very generally taken by the Mormons.

The jubilee OF Queen Victoria is to be comment
Grated By the release OF one-thrd OF the prisoners
in India and or all persons imprisoned In that
country for debt less than 100 rupees. The Jubi-
lation will doubtless be enthusiastic among the
released prisoners but in combining the freedom Of
the jubilee TO country and TO fraction OF those
imprisoned the scriptural year OF jubilee Is not
closely initiated In that season. every hftieth
year. the land which had passed out OF the posses
sion Of those to whom 1t originally belonged was
restored to them; all who had been reduced to
poverty and had been obliged to let themselves
out for hire were released from bondage, and all
debts were cancelled. England, as the great cred
itor nation and English holders OF Irish land would
probably ind the universal observance Of the
scrptural year OF jubilee practically inconvenient.
But victorias jubilee would be a grander one IL
the scriptural practices revived were applied not
in half-hearted way to fraction of imprisoned
Asiatics, but on q broad and magnificent scale to
Ireland and her unhappy people. With land re-
stored and rents cancelled what year OF jubilee
IL would be for Irelandi

In the New Jersey senatorial election affairs are
In curious shape. There Is q revolt against the
caucus nominees Of both parties Sewen cannot
control all the republican votes, nor Albeit the
democratic, and neither can be elected without
drawing upon the two labor members OF the legis-
lsture. But as the anttAbbett men, and especially
Speaker Baird declare that they will vote for re-
publican In preference TO Albeit, and as the Alb
bett men say emphatically that no other democrat
shall be elected, the republicans seem to find en-
enlargement In the prospect, viewing the split In
their own ranks as less dangerous. The District
OF Columbia Is having no end Of trouble this year
In ascertatning the precise makeup Of the upper
branch Of It's legislature. Election returns from
West Virginia as well as New Jersey are yet to be
received.

Philadelphia has Just expressed its opinion OF
the Doodle system at the polls and It's voters keep
In line with the New York Jur1es. The ONCE OF
mayor OF that city Is now one OF great power and
responsibility, and the local contest just closed
was well fought and exciting. The democratic
and independent candidate for the ONCE must 1t is
thought, attribute his overwhelming defeat, not
withStanding his thorough canvass, to the publ
cation OF an alleged contract between him and
another candidate In o former election for sheriff.
In which it Is agreed that one shall do all he can
TO elect the other In consideration of division OF
the fees OF the ONCE In case OF success. "COm-
bines' and divides are, happily, no longer pop
ular.
